The Honestly WTF DIY Heart Elbow Patch Adds Quirk to Cardigans

The Honestly WTF DIY Elbow Patch will update formerly outdated and bland sweaters with a whimsical heart-shaped decal. The tutorial does require the creator to have some understanding of needle felting, which can be picked up with some practice and YouTube tutorials.

Needle felting involves the repeated weaving of wool rooving through another material -- a sweater in this particular case. Before tackling this design, creators will need to select a sweater they wish to embellish with elbow patches. As well, they will need needles, a heart-shaped cookie cutter and a foam platform. While this DIY is more demanding than most, its final result is one you can truly be proud of.
